Autobiographies[edit]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article about yourself, at Draft:Martin Stranka. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. Thank you. --Hammersoft (talk) 22:45, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To whom it may concern. I would like to clarify a few things in regards to Martin Stranka Wikipedia page. It is not an autobiography. I wrote the article. My name is Michala and I also wrote the Czech version of the article here:

https://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Stranka

I am Mr photographer's assistant. And I think his work is worth noting. And since Martin Stranka celebrates vast success not only in the Czech Republic but also worldwide, being awarded many international awards for his works already. I believed that information and insight into his work should be available on Wikipedia in the English language as well. I hope this proves helpful and the article can be published. If you should have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Michala zaludova.michala@gmail.com

My conclusion was drawn solely on the name of this account vs. the name of the draft article you created. Given what you have said, I withdraw my comments about the draft. However, I would ask that you please read our conflict of interest guideline. Also, if you are being paid in any manner for conducting this work, you must read and follow the Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure policy. If I can help you, please let me know. Thanks, --Hammersoft (talk) 21:57, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank you for all your help and time. But I have not been paid in any way at all to create this page. I believe this is not a subject to Paid-contribution disclosure. Also, This is solemnly my initiative. As I have written above. I believe, that Mr Stranka's work should be available to English speakers too. For he has been exhibiting, winning major international awards and contributing with his art internationally for years now.

If there is anything further you may need to publish the page. I will provide any statement necessary. I hope this has clarified the rest of the questions and that the page can now be made public. Many thanks for your guidance and support. I appreciate it very much. Michala

Please read WP:COI. You are still related to the subject as assistant. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:34, 27 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Martin Stranka (July 26)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Velella was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Multiple independent and reliable sources are required. None of these appear to be independent or reliable - they all contain interview material or significant direct quotation confirming lack of independence.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Martin Stranka and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Martin Stranka, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Martin Stranka (September 3)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Noahfgodard were:

This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
